I'm using the MV88Q2110 and connecting it to a Göpel media converter that I use as a reference. However, with your patch applied, I can't get a link. When I set a fixed link speed of 1GBit/s and the media converter is configured as the master, I can normally do: ethtool -s end1 speed 1000 master-slave forced-slave After that, the link came up. However, with the changes made, I can't do this anymore. Can you reproduce this in your setup? What is your setup like? Are you connecting two MV88Q2110 physically to each other? I'm out of office again next week, afterwards I should be able to do some more testing again. I think being able to set fixed link speeds is a must for this PHY. Regards, Stefan
